Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the pasta, especially with cheese and sliced chicken, describing it as creamy, comforting and well coated in sauce, and many order it as a side. Close behind are the grilled chicken and wings, called juicy and generously sauced, along with thick-cut, well-seasoned piri chips. One reviewer finds the chips and some of the chicken too salty, and another notes the signature chips are just regular chips. The chicken wrap and lemon and herb chicken in pitta also draw praise. Staff are described as friendly and helpful, with one server going out of his way to serve a big family, and the dining room is called clean and spotless. The complaints concern delivery and collection. Orders arrived lukewarm, a double chicken burger came as a single, a Caesar salad was tiny and had no dressing, and one reviewer received pink, underdone chicken. Another got stale chips from the heater, asked for fresh ones and was handed the same chips reheated. A taste pot with spicy rice was only just over half full.

“First time trying the Perizinos Selly Oak branch, as my usual go to is the Marston Green one. After finishing at the gym in Solihull, I drove past the Hall Green branch but decided to try Selly Oak instead. I was greeted by Nabeel, the main man himself, and the service was top level from start to finish. The food was just as good as at the Marston Green branch—fresh, hot and full of flavour. The shop was spotless, the décor looked great, and even though it was closing time, they kindly let me eat inside. I was really impressed with this branch. Great food, excellent service and a very welcoming atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back!🔥👊”

“I have always gone to the Dudley Road branch but thought we would try the Selly oak branch for a delivery. The food came lukewarm, the Caesar salad was tiny for a whopping £9.55 and had no Caesar dressing, my taste pot with pasta had a hair and bone in it and the double chicken burger we ordered came as a single. We will not be ordering from this branch again and will be going to our regular branch which always has great service.”

“Blazing hot day today, after a family swimming session this was a lovely place to dine at with air conditioning!!! Clean and easy to order.. food was healthy and really good just a tad bit salty on some of the chicken meals we ordered but we devoured it all as we were famished after swimming. I would recommend the restaurant for their chicken breast meals and wings to be a little bit saucier and succulent but that’s probably more of a preference. I really liked their pasta side, like we had so many on our table as we ordered them with the meal deal.. peri fries were just too salty for me but obv the peri salt is the whole purpose of peri fries however it just didn’t cut it for me so I wished I had regular fries. They didn’t really have a house sauce to try so a perinaise was offered but that’s not my kind of thing either. All in all, it was very filling and would defo go again just to try their peri chicken again, this time will defo get whole chicken and their platters looked fire and great value so wouldn’t have had to spend over £80 if I had gone for them. Big shout out to the staff for being so helpful, couldn’t get the name of the brother that helped literally by going out of his way to serve our big family and getting everything right! Thank you so much !”

“Ordered for collection for a scheduled order for 4:40pm today. Arrive at 4:30pm the chips were horribly stale. I asked the staff why are they stale they said you food has been sat in the food heater for a while. I explained I’ve arrived at the time my order was scheduled for. The staff member said he would replace it with some fresher cooked chips. Instead he just reheated the chips that were given back and now they’re even worse. Poor food preparation and service. The food in other branches seems to have higher standards and quality.”

“We visited Peri Finos yesterday evening and ordered a Chicken & Pasta Tastepot (Hot). We have ordered from Peri Finos before and have always had a positive experience, although this was our first time visiting this particular branch. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with both the customer service and the food quality. The young lady who served us, who was wearing a hijab, came across as blunt and unfriendly when taking our order. We felt that her attitude was unwelcoming and did not reflect the level of customer service we would expect. We also noticed her speaking in Arabic to an Uber Eats driver while serving customers, which we personally felt was unprofessional in a customer-facing environment. To make matters worse, when we got home and opened our food, we found a hair inside one of the Peri Finos boxes. This was extremely off-putting and raised concerns about hygiene standards at the branch. Overall, this experience was very disappointing and fell well below the standard we have come to expect from Peri Finos. We hope this feedback is taken seriously and that steps are taken to improve both customer service and food hygiene.”
